Zima se mi rima - zimska plesna produkcija Plesne Izbe Maribor

Plesna izba Maribor's annual winter drummers show production

As the custom goes, day after the winter dance production, drummers from Plesna izba Maribor get their spotlight and this year was no different!

I was very happy to be commissioned and to collaborate on another annual winter dance production by Plesna izba Maribor, Maribor’s well known dance school & dance company, photographing young talented dancers in another great performance!

Plesna izba Maribor's 30 years jubilee dance show production

Plesna izba Maribor, dance school and production company that celebrates 30 years of all year round dance classes, had their annual summer production that was, given the jubilee, quite special!

This past weekend I was very happy and privileged, to document 32nd Winter dance school (32. Zimska plesna šola) - my third in a roll - that was organised by JSKD and held in Plesna izba Maribor. Full of very talented young dancers and their great mentors, this workshop was again, just as last two years, a joy to photograph! :)

Another end of the school year means another annual summer production of Plesna izba Maribor can take place - traditionally, drummers went first! :)

Continuing our successful collaboration from the last year, I was hired again this year to document the international Winter Dance School that has been happening in Maribor for 31 years now!

Last weekend, I've been very privileged to photograph amazing young dancers from whole Slovenia (plus some foreign guests) with their amazing mentors, during the 30th Winter dance school (30. Zimska plesna šola). Such passion and talent in one place - simply, for a lack of better word, amazing!

Moment - Monja & Domen - the dancing couple, a quick photo shoot

Monday, 22/12/2014

Monja Lorenčič and Domen Žugelj, known also under their artistic name Moment, are two great, young and very talented dancers from Slovenia that needed some fresh pics for their portfolio - I was very honoured to work with them on a quick photo shoot last month and am sure will do this again, since all three of us had a great time :)

During this 16 days of Festival Lent, I also shoot some (contemporary) dance performances and theatre for children - find some of those images in this gallery :)
